THE WIFI SHORTS PROGRAM

THE ANNOUNCEMENT DATE HAS BEEN EXTENDED TO SEPTEMBER 8, 2010.

The WIFI Shorts Program is a celebration of filmmakers from all corners of the world, produced by the members of the Women In Film International Committee (WIFI).  This year, for the 4th Annual Film Shorts, WIFI has partnered with the Korean Cultural Center Los Angeles (KCCLA), the Korean Film Council (KOFIC) and NYX Cosmetics to showcase and celebrate the dynamic works of emerging and established Korean and Korean American filmmakers.

Located in the Miracle Mile District, the Korean Cultural Center Los Angeles provides insights into the rich cultural heritage of Korea. On Saturday, October 2, 2010, come join us and partake in film, art, music, cuisine, and culture!

WIFI welcomes and thanks all sponsors, supporters, and participants of this event.

FILMS BY KOREAN FILMMAKERS

Through a diverse program of short films, this year’s series will celebrate and support the creative talents of Korean filmmakers. Every filmmaker has a unique perspective on their culture and their world. The films selected both narrative and documentary, will provide views into the psyche of these communities and deepen our understanding of Korean life, land, and cultures.

EXPERIENCE FILM, MUSIC, ART, CUISINE AND CULTURE

Come and experience the traditions and culture of Korea! The short films shown at this special event are the apexes of an entire evening of artistic expression.

While tasting the culinary delights of Korea, make certain you also enjoy the display of amazing art. Experience the rich traditions and history spanning more than 5,000 years of Korea as you stroll through the museum’s exhibition hall filled with historic and contemporary artifacts.

Sit back and enjoy the performances by Korean artists or, if you feel up to a challenge, join in.
